Our sponsor is this month is Kat Scrappiness, and they are offering a Kat Scrappiness gift package worth $100!  Unfortunately, due to high shipping cost, this prize could only be awarded to a winner (randomly selected) with a valid U.S. address.

(Any Holidays). 

Here is my project-

And here is a bonus card-

The Ornament Strip Cover Plate Craft Die by Kat Scrappiness is great to use for mass production, or just one card! I made 20 cards using the die for my husbands work crew, and it didn't hardly take any time at all. Picking out the paper was the hardest part! For more ideas, visit Kat Scrappiness and peruse the examples shown there. The sentiment is from Birch Press, but Kat Scrappiness has several that would work just as well. All the paper is from my stash. Personally, I wouldn't go much heaver than 100 lb cardstock, and dust the die with anti static powder so the finer parts of the die will pop right out.The embellishments are from Trinity Stamps-Silver Baubles & Gold Baubles.

Here is my project-

I really, really, love the Kat Scappiness Crafter Essentials Winter die set. It make it so easy to make a winter scene! The sky was some leftover watercolor scraps I had, and I used the die to add the snowflakes with Hero Arts Unicorn ink. I chose this tree by Kat Scrappiness (Stitched and Layered Christmas Tree) to make a simple scene. The snow on the tree is Amplify, by Neon. When you use heat on the product it puffs up!

Winter Forest Scene

Kat Scrappiness is offering a prize of a Kat Scrappiness Gift Pack valued at least $25.

The standard size of a slimline card is typically 3.5" X 8.5" (8.89 X 21.59 cm).  The card base for a mini slimline card is typically 3" X 6".   These are approximate sizes and we won't be checking to see if your card meets the exact standard for either size.    

Here is my project-

 

 

On this card I used the Forest for the Trees Die and the deer from Crafter's Essentials Winter Dies, both by Kat Scrappiness. The sentiment is from an older Just Rite stamp set called Antique Christmas Tags. The background is made with watercolor paper sprinkled with Brusho's. I think it gave a really pretty effect.

The background of this card is made with Tim Holtz alcohol inks (Purple Twilight, Crimson, and Honeycomb). You never know how it will turn out, but I LOVE it. I sealed it with Tim Holtz Distress Micro Glaze, and added the Kat Scrappiness Hello My Crafty Friend die set with Gina K. Connect Glue (adhered beautifully to the micro glazed background).
